Answer:
The Reconstruction was implemented by Congress and lasted from 1866 to 1877. It was aimed at the reorganization of the Southern states after the Civil War, provision of the means for readmitting them into the Union, and definition of the means by which whites and blacks could live together in a non-slave society. The South, however, saw Reconstruction as a humiliation and even as a vengeful imposition and did not welcome it.
Explanation:
Nevada became the 36th state on October 31, 1864, after telegraphing the Constitution of Nevada to the Congress days before the November 8 presidential election (the largest and costliest transmission ever by telegraph). Statehood was rushed to help ensure three electoral votes for Abraham Lincoln's reelection and add to the Republican congressional majorities.[1]
Nevada's harsh but rich environment shaped its history and culture. Before 1858 small Mormon settlements along the border of Utah sustained their communities through faith, but the secular western section stumbled along until the great silver strikes beginning in 1858 created boom towns and fabulous fortunes. After the beginning of the 20th century, profits declined while Progressive reformers sought to curb rampaging capitalism
and its attendant miseries. They imagined a civilized Nevada of
universities, lofty idealism, and social reform. But an economic bust
during the 1910s and disillusionment from failures at social reform and a
population decline of nearly one-fourth meant that by 1920 Nevada had degenerated into a "beautiful desert of buried hopes."[2] The boom returned when big time gambling arrived in 1931, and with good transportation (especially to California metropolitan areas), the nation's easiest divorce laws,
and a speculative get-rich-quick spirit, Nevada had a boom-and-bust
economy that was mostly boom until the worldwide financial crisis of
2008 revealed extravagant speculation in housing and casinos on an epic
scale
